Dog chew toys that don't get them in trouble: Add your dog's favorites! (Thanks, daisee)

1. Fun stuff
- We leave empty cardboard boxes for the dogs to chew up. Also these loofah bones (cleans their teeth while they rip them apart) and TONS of cat toys (with catnip). (from veritableqndry)

2. Hard-to-destroy stuff

-At dollar tree they carry "milkbone" toys... she beats the hell out of them and still they hold up. (not to mention their only a buck if they destroy them) (from wakethewicked2)

- I've had good luck with these -- the avatar dog has destroyed everything but this kind. They come in different sizes and shapes and you can put treats inside for them to dig out: http://www.petmountain.com/produc...-kong.html . I get mine at a local farm store, but I'm sure you could get them at places like Pets Mart if you don't want to buy online. (from callpocket)

- Here are a couple that have survived Sophie so far:
  • Busy Buddy bouncy bone - We gave up on the rawhide inserts. She rips those out in seconds but likes the toy without them anyhow and cannot kill it.)
  • Everlasting treat ball -Again she pulls out the expensive inserts right off the bat...but she likes bouncing the toy. You can also hide dog kibble in the middle for the dog to try to get out, which entertains him for awhile. She hasn't managed to rip this one at all yet even though it feels soft and flexible.
  • Jolly Ball: - Ours is bigger than the one at this link. It's hysterical to see her stick her snout in the hole and wave the ball in the air. It's bigger than her head. She runs around the house with it on her snout, growling and acting like a maniac. I don't know why she can't chew it up, but she can't.
  • Then there are big Nylabones, which she can kill eventually. But they take a long time to die. (from olu)

I'm imagining him in the outfit in your avatar while he does this Smilie
lol no, I don't make him wear the beard daily. But it is hilarious to watch him trying to eat the beard while he wears it!

I thought maybe he had to wear it till after Christmas Smilie

Left a basket of folded laundry unguarded today. When I got home there were socks all over the house...but she hadn't chewed up even one. Amazing. It looked sort of like a sock version of an Easter egg hunt.....

Left Tails out of his kennel while we braved the blizzard to go to the casino on Sat. (ended up playing craps with Al Harris of the Green Bay Packers!) Tails has only been left alone out of his kennel one other time for an hour. Surprisingly he did not eat a thing (that we found yet) nor leave a single mess.

But yesterday while my bf and I were in the bedroom w/the door closed Wink nod he managed to eat some of the presents I wrapped and left 2 pee spots. Jealous.
